Here is how to configure the Thunderbird
email client to use with your Aplus.Net email accounts:
1. Open Thunderbird,
and from the Tools menu select Account Settings.
2. Click the Add
Account button.
3. Select Email
Account and click Next.
4. Enter your name and complete
email address and click Next. Please make sure to replace
“yourdomain.com” with your actual domain name.
5. Select POP as
type of incoming server. Incoming and Outgoing Server should be respectively: mail.yourdomain.com and smtp.yourdomain.com.
Click Next.
Important:
You may also choose to use the SMTP server of your ISP. However,
if you decide to use Aplus.Net’s SMTP server as shown above (smtp.yourdomain.com),
please make sure that the SMTP server is enabled for the particular
email box:
6. Enter your complete
email address in both the Incoming and Outgoing User
Name text fields. Click Next.
7. Enter a name for
this email account and click Next.
8. You will now see
a confirmation screen. If everything is correct, click Finish.
9. You have two options
available for the Outgoing Server (SMTP) settings as specified
below:
9.1. Set port 465 with SSL connection.
Enter smtp.yourdomain.com as Server Name and check the box
next to “Use name and password”.
9.2. Set port 587 with TLS connection.
Enter smtp.yourdomain.com as Server Name and check the box
next to “Use name and password”.
